He had it all. The looks, the personality, the voice, the kind heart and yet when he was lonely and depressed no one came to help him. His own father basically abandoned him not to mention that Shirley Jones commented that when David was around 8 years old she would often come home and find David sitting in a corner crying from something his own father said to him or that Jack abused him physically and yet David adored him. No one should have to be so alone. *Rest In Peace David* *We Love Ya*
He did it to himself. Many people go through tragedy and depression but live a long happy life but Cassidy decide to not get help with his alcoholism. He was a train wreck in the end.
M L you are SOOOOO LUCKY!!! When I got to go, David was out for that day!!! Shaun was great & Adrian Zmed saved the day for me!!! FINALLY Got to see him at the Mohegan Sun Casino in the late 90s!!!
Me too! David Cassidy had a laugh like no other. He always seemed to put his all into that laugh of his. It always seemed to come straight from his belly.
Looks aren't everything. I'm pure handsome but haven't got 2 Bob to spare, my handsomeness worked against me. I had too much looks and too little talent. I'd have done better if I were uglier, maybe got a part as a gangster in a movie.
I liked the shirts he wore on PF...not all, but most. Good interview. Still miss him and wish I could have met him or seen him in concert again. Saw him perform when I was very young in the 70s at the Indianapolis State Fair. My mom took us 3 kids. She enjoyed it too. RIP David....
This was such a vulnerable guy. Seemed his whole life was an internal conflict and fight with himself. David wasn't perfect .. But He was a very talented, very kind ..yet unfortunately , a tortured, tormented soul , who always seemed to be trying to justify his existence and look for himself. Rest Well David The Fight Is Over 🙏🌹🙏
From what I can tell, this is very true. Cassidy seems very awkward in many (not all) post Partridge appearances. I heard an interview with his arranger (John Bahler) who said David couldn’t accept what he was so good at and what appealed to mass audiences. He wasted a lot of his time trying to redefine himself as an R&B singer, was the example he gave. David had other successes to be sure, but never recaptured what he had during the Partridges.
Why? Appearance is a great indicator of how well someone is doing. Appearance doesn’t lie. If someone is sick and an alcoholic you don’t look good for long.
I don't know for sure but I believe he was doing well until his mother started developing Alzheimers. His first DUI came in 2010 & his mother died in 2012.
That was one of my favorite parts. In any interview when David was promoting his book, no matter what show, the interviewer always asks about his relationship with Susan Dey, always. Inquiring minds want to know! God, they would have made a cute couple. In real life, I guess it wasn't meant to be, but onscreen, they were adorable together. If The Partridge Family were a soap opera, they wouldn't have played brother and sister -- instead they would have been a SUPERCOUPLE!
@@LuvTadnDixie I heard from a few different sources that they were actually dating during the PF show not just when it ended as David says in his books. Susan knew that David was meeting many girls when he was on tour and she wasn't happy about it; apparently, it drove them apart. This would also explain David's behavior with Susan then; it was way more than brotherly. Maybe one day Susan will tell what really happened between them.
I would imagine that Susans' people met with Davids' people and there were some papers signed that said that neither David or Susan would speak publicly about any relationship between the two.
@@AnAmericanGirl4Sure I don't know about that but in his book, David revealed that they had an encounter and he went into much details about their tryst, depicting Susan in a tactless manner. She was so offended by this that she just stopped speaking to him and appearing on PF reunions.
@@Swakara1 yeah...I thought he was going to faint too. I probably would faint of David of kissed me (or even if I just thought that he was going to kiss me.
HE LOOKED SO HOT IN THOSE TIGHT JEANS! GREAT LAUGH, GREAT VOICE, GREAT FACE, GREAT ENTERTAINER, HE MAKES ME SMILE, GREAT MUSICIAN, GRACIOUS, FUNNY...HE REALLY HAD IT ALL!! I MISS HIM SO MUCH! WHY OH WHY COULDN'T HE JUST REALIZE ALL HIS TALENTS AND BE HERE WITH US! OH DAVID!!! I DON'T THINK I LOVE YOU, I DO!!!
I also had his posters all over my bedroom wall, closet door......anywhere I could find a spot--there was a poster of David Cassidy!! Miss you SO much DC.
I agree with you 100%! I am so glad to hear another fan comment on the real truth of DC's sad and pathetic end to what could have been such an untarnished legacy. I am HUGE DC FAN! Please do not judge me on this following statement: DC died in bankruptcy, with three failed marriages, and THREE DRUNK DRIVING CHARGES!!! The third drunk driving accident was a hit and run. If this had been anyone else, who was not famous it would have been some serious jail time. A lot of DC fans have an almost GOD like persona of DC. This includes other celebrities who get a slap on the wrist for their crimes and indiscretions. I completely understand that DC had some serious problems, and demons he could not shake off. But in the light of everything else, don't we all from time to time have our own problems and demons to manage? My daughter's best friend lost a leg due to a drunk driver. He lost his license to drive for the rest of his life, and served 1-3 years jail time. Was only fair. DC has brought much joy in my life with his music and othet superb talents, but even as Danny Bonaduce said, "It was a shame, so tragic." This NOT a direct quote. I guess I vented here to allow us we are just the same as celebrities when it comes to the law.
Joanna Deacon my parents were hit by a drunk driver waiting at a stop light. Mom went through the windshield and land in a field. Got 300 stitches in her face. Almost died. Yes a lot of young stars when they aged ended up on drugs or alcoholic. Very sad.
@@joannadeacon7175 hello Joanna. Although I do agree with you on everything else that you said.....DC was not bankrupt. He left his son, Beau, several millions of dollars.
@@starrbrannon3883 DC filed for Bankruptcy while he was going through his divorce, and afterwards. Beau was left with everything, and his brothers rec'd all his memorabilia. I don't know how much Beau inherited, but it was not millions of dollars, perhaps a million at most.
OMG! That part when David acted like he was about to kiss Little Richard, LMAO!!!!! A lot of gay men had the hots for David Cassidy, Richard was probably hoping he'd kiss him for real.
@LuvTadnDixie And you find that was so very much of the utmost importance of to had to type. What makes you different than Little Richard being a homosexual [the ONLY TRUE REAL WORD that everyone has a problem with true proper English words. AS WAS ONLY VERY SO OBVIOUS OF WHY YOU TAPPED TO SEE THIS VIDEO---TO HAVE NOTHING TO COMMENT EXCEPT LITTLE RICHARD. You DID NOT come onto this video of having anything to do with David Cassidy being on with Jay Leno.
No clue what you're talking about Eliana. I'm a big fan of David Cassidy and I read his book and I know not only did women find David Cassidy attractive, gay men liked him too. He was a sexy guy. And I thought Little Richard's reaction was hilarious.
I JUST watched him on it for the FIRST time YESTERDAY on YT❣️It looked like MAYBE BEFORE PF? He did a GREAT JOB❣️I couldn’t help but think of how Jack was more like his Father on that show?! If Jack had been more like what Marcus Welby was to him David might STILL be WITH US❣️🤩😎🇺🇸
Little Richard & David Reunited on this cause Little Richard Was On The Glen Campbell Show when david guest starred doing that the fablous 50's so david did know little richard from before
I grew up with "The Partridge Family", and I followed the musical career of David Cassidy, for Many Years...Beyond the "Bubblegum" music! When he died, it broke my heart! And it was worse for me, cause he died on my birthday! :(
so cute....loveable human being and funny here. He is in denial here at this time about things between himself and Susan. Later on there is some insight more reflective . He is being discreet and careful here . Life.
Spunky with talent unlimited . ..Such a nice guy who couldn't get on top of his addictions . So so sad ,hope he has love ,peace n happiness....See ya ✌✌💞💞💞🎤🎤🕺😄😄😄😁
Little Richards was so excited, especially about that little demonstration David did. He nearly lost it. LOL!! David sure was a good Guy. In the End he really wanted to turn back the Clock for more time, but years of Alcoholism to Numb his unhappiness starting early 2000's took a toll on his Liver. #RIPDavidCassidy
I believe they did hook up after the show, she was in love with him, he had so many women, Susan as beautiful as she was, wasn't his type, he said he liked them, the more slutty the better, she was not at all slutty, she was a cold cream commercial, simply beautiful, but not the Motel 6 type, if u catch my drift, I hear she took great offense to his disclosing of the brief affair and never really spoke to him again
It's possible that David wrote this to placate his then wife, Sue Shifrin. His book was released in 1994 and in 1993 he appeared on a British show called "This is your life" David Cassidy. Susan Dey took part of it and when she came on, David & her were hugging tight while she was saying I love you. That was intense and genuine and Sue Shifrin was watching on with this look on her face.
David was in lover with Susan even though he denied it here . Body language says it all in his clips with her . He probably did not want to settle down or become too serious as a younger man but that does not mean that he was not attracted to Susan beyond a platonic level. A confused younger man. Also careful and discreet to tell all because of his marriage to Sue Shifrin. It would have made her uncomfortable and he was a gentleman .
I'm 23 and grew up watching The Partridge Family on DVD. Met Shirley Jones back in 2017 but David passed a few months later and I never had the chance to meet him... It's a shame he lived such a difficult life. He was awesome and so talented.
David seems to be a very professional hard working gracious guy. I feel his frustration with the Partridge fame. Seems like he never got to express his true musical and acting talents because of the Keith Partridge personna that caged and hindered him. Credits to him for continuously persuing his dreams!
Unfortunately this was the book that broke his friendship with Susan, exposing in a rude and cheap way their short relationship. His wild life and bad decisions ruined his life and career indeed. BTW, during his lifetime David spent more years talking about the PF show than actually acting on the show. 😊😃😯 He made a living talking about his traumatic experience in the Show.😃😄
@Gail Collier What are you even talking about of shirts with buttons are pretty???? How is it that you going through life AND HAS NEVER EVER EVEN SEEN WHAT REAL SHIRTS ARE??? No one EVER went ANYWHERE WEARING A T-SHIRT, as those are to be worn UNDER all men's and boys REAL SHIRTS THAT ALL WERE BUTTONED SHIRTS. As T-SHIRTS are UNDERWEAR, for THEY ARE WORN ONLY UNDER ONE'S BUTTONED ALL UP TO THE COLLAR SHIRTS. You must have been born in the 1980s and had Parents, Grand-Parents and Uncle, and Aunts, and Grand-Grand-Parents, Uncles and of Aunts as well as people your family knew that for some really extremely odd reasons had never ever shown you pictures of them and of any other people wearing ONLY WHAT TRULY REAL SHIRTS ARE. For THEY ALL do really know what a 'real shirt' is.
Gail, David wore some of the nicest button down shirts. We've got some amazing pictures of him wearing the difference button down shirts, don't we? The only tee-shirt I remember him wearing were his Keep Brittan Clean. Other than that, he wore pull over shirts with zippers or lace up. I have no idea what Eliana Miller is talking about. I think she owes you, Gail, an apology for being so rude. Especially since she doesn't know anything about you, me and, apparently, David. 😘🤗💖
@Ann B Ahh Ann it is so nice to hear from you again, you are so sweet xx I really have met some lovely fans on here, most are the best some ( and we won't mention any names ) the trolls are a different story xx Look forward to our next little chat 😚😚😚
Whatta riot, Little Richard gotta a scare. Genetics run strong 4 David from good looking Dad with a good voice & sense of humor whom also left us 2 soon. Unfortunately he passed out drunk with a lit cigarette and didn't survive the fire...
Had to be 1994 based on him just finishing Blood Brothers on Broadway. He went on to do it on the road before headlining EFX in Las Vegas for a few years. His 40s were probably his most successful and most stable decade. From different interviews etc he gave during that time and how hard his was working, I don’t think he was drinking that decade. His son was born and he got married in 91 etc. I think he started really drinking in his 50s.
David : "I was a very serious actor before the PF show " Really? I saw him like 30 seconds in minor roles in few TV shows. Nothing remarkable for a serious actor. ... His police TV show role after PF was ridiculous and boring.
Rodrigo Rod David Cassidy was in a lot of dramatic roles before joining The Partridge Family, including: The F.B.I. The Survivors, Ironside, Adam-12, Bonanza, Marcus Welby, M.D. Medical Center, and The Mod Squad.
@Rodrigo Better you read his biography. He started in 1969 on Broadway in NY with „The fig leaves are falling“. And he played with his mom in California around 1965. 💕
He had pretty big roles in huge serious tv shows of the time, Bonanza, Marcus Welby and several more. Not minor roles at-all. He was still a teenager 18-19 years old. Phenomenal body of work for someone so young in a very short space of time. All before the PF shot him into utter teen idol status. It wasn’t something he wanted, but dealt with it the best he could. He did have great comedic timing and allowed himself to be the butt of many jokes. He coudn’t really escape it. Unfortunately the PF changed the way he was perceived for any future roles. Just could not shake the teen idol thing, still being introduced that way in his 60’s. It must have been a pain at times. Those early roles can be seen on UA-cam now. Very decent body of work.
Ultimately Cassidy's HUGE ego finished his career. He was a teen idol singing forgettable bubblegum pop music, he was a pretty boy, but his looks overshadowed his minimal talent. He didn't write great music, he didn't play great guitar. He wasn't a great actor. He always claims he was a rock and roller. Yet I've never heard him sing rock and roll or blues. He spent 40 years trading on his 'Partridge Family' fame, a tv show that only lasted for 5 years. He had 3 failed marriages, ignored his illegitimate daughter for 25 years and had a huge fall out with his son. The combination of having an ego the size of Texas and an alcohol problem caused the failure of his career and his relationships. I find his false Bon homie and 'Mr Showbiz' persona actually very difficult viewing. I do feel sad for the guy, to have had such adulation and fame and watch it all dissipate into nothingness can easily drive you to drink, which was a major part in his downfall.
So BuzzerObama. If the only reason you came here was to insult David First off, how bored are you? What you have no life. Sounds like pure jealousy to me , and I see why. David is gorgeous, sexy.a good actor and great singer!! No wonder you're jealous. I get it.
@@robertaclark2996 .......you are viewing him through the eyes of a fan who can’t see his flaws. I simply see him objectively and his contribution to popular music, both good and bad Which part did I get wrong?
He had it all. The looks, the personality, the voice, the kind heart and yet when he was lonely and depressed no one came to help him. His own father basically abandoned him not to mention that Shirley Jones commented that when David was around 8 years old she would often come home and find David sitting in a corner crying from something his own father said to him or that Jack abused him physically and yet David adored him. No one should have to be so alone.
*Rest In Peace David*

He did it to himself. Many people go through tragedy and depression but live a long happy life but Cassidy decide to not get help with his alcoholism. He was a train wreck in the end.
I agree with all your comments 100% may he rest in peace 🙏.
Little Richard’s reaction to David kissing him is so hilarious. 😂
This is a good time of his life and he seemed happy He'll always hold a special place in my heart
David Cassidy was sure looking fine here.
His laugh is adorable . ♥️♥️ Miss him so 😥💔
So much talent, & what a sweet soul. Gone too soon. That face - sheer perfection. Goodnight sweet prince. RIP David. Till we meet again. 😭😢🙏💔🎸🎤🎶🌹
I was lucky enough to see David in "Blood Brothers" and he killed in that role. He was fantastic. Miss him!

Me too! David Cassidy had a laugh like no other. He always seemed to put his all into that laugh of his. It always seemed to come straight from his belly.
Starr Brannon straight from his heart ...a very hearty laugh! Love him so...& miss him so much!
Hi Starr
HOW HANDSOME HE IS AND SO BEAUTIFUL HEARTED TOO .
Looks aren't everything. I'm pure handsome but haven't got 2 Bob to spare, my handsomeness worked against me. I had too much looks and too little talent. I'd have done better if I were uglier, maybe got a part as a gangster in a movie.
What a sweet laugh David had. It makes me smile every time I here it
What a sweet laugh David had.it make me smile every time I hear it.
David is one of the most beautiful men ever ❤.
I liked the shirts he wore on PF...not all, but most. Good interview. Still miss him and wish I could have met him or seen him in concert again. Saw him perform when I was very young in the 70s at the Indianapolis State Fair. My mom took us 3 kids. She enjoyed it too. RIP David....
I think he was protecting Susan, and the relationship he had with her. R.I.P. David
This was such a vulnerable guy.
Seemed his whole life was an internal conflict and fight with himself.
David wasn't perfect ..
But He was a very talented, very kind ..yet unfortunately , a tortured, tormented soul , who always seemed to be trying to justify his existence and look for himself.
Rest Well David
The Fight Is Over
🙏🌹🙏
Thank you for this wonderful comment. You said it all.
Thank You 🙏😊
From what I can tell, this is very true. Cassidy seems very awkward in many (not all) post Partridge appearances.

David was a brilliant entertainer, actor and interviewee...R.I.P.
That was a great book!!!, Quite an eye -opener, He told ALL!!. I enjoyed reading it, R.I.P. David.
Jesus! David looks great here. Did he ever go down hill fast from this point on.
What the Hell happened?
So heartbreaking.
butheadgsxr1000 dont ever be fooled by appearances.
Why? Appearance is a great indicator of how well someone is doing. Appearance doesn’t lie. If someone is sick and an alcoholic you don’t look good for long.
@@kchappelle David had alcohol problems which eventually killed him
I don't know for sure but I believe he was doing well until his mother started developing Alzheimers. His first DUI came in 2010 & his mother died in 2012.
Oh my goodness, I keep coming back to this wonderful video. I love David.....SO much!! Love and kisses to you David, from a huge fan in Oklahoma.
Love this, Little Richard is so funny the way he reacts to David
So handsome.

Now behave yourself,best ever actor ?.he could certainly sing, and I'm sure he was sweet too, but he was never a serious actor,

It was a very interesting book
I'm 23 and grew up watching The Partridge Family on DVD. Met Shirley Jones back in 2017 but David passed a few months later and I never had the chance to meet him... It's a shame he lived such a difficult life. He was awesome and so talented.

As T-SHIRTS are UNDERWEAR, for THEY ARE WORN ONLY UNDER ONE'S BUTTONED ALL UP TO THE COLLAR SHIRTS. You must have been born in the 1980s and had Parents, Grand-Parents and Uncle, and Aunts, and Grand-Grand-Parents, Uncles and of Aunts as well as people your family knew that for some really extremely odd reasons had never ever shown you pictures of them and of any other people wearing ONLY WHAT TRULY REAL SHIRTS ARE. For THEY ALL do really know what a 'real shirt' is.
Gail, David wore some of the nicest button down shirts. We've got some amazing pictures of him wearing the difference button down shirts, don't we?
The only tee-shirt I remember him wearing were his Keep Brittan Clean.
Other than that, he wore pull over shirts with zippers or lace up.
I have no idea what Eliana Miller is talking about. I think she owes you, Gail, an apology for being so rude. Especially since she doesn't know anything about you, me and, apparently, David. 😘🤗💖
@@elianamiller2666 Ma'am you are under a big misunderstanding. Also, there is no need to be rude.
@Ann B another comment from her that makes no sense, she's been off the radar for a while, I thought she may have been locked up 🤣🤣🤣
@Ann B Ahh Ann it is so nice to hear from you again, you are so sweet xx
I really have met some lovely fans on here, most are the best some ( and we won't mention any names ) the trolls are a different story xx

POR FAVOR, TRADUZCAN EL VIDEO AL IDIOMA ESPAÑOL.
This was back in the very late 1980s or very early 1900s.
(I wish the date was posted on the title. Why can't people do that?)
1900's 😂 I know you meant 1990's
@@marah1115 OK so it was a typo.
Had to be 1994 based on him just finishing Blood Brothers on Broadway. He went on to do it on the road before headlining EFX in Las Vegas for a few years. His 40s were probably his most successful and most stable decade. From different interviews etc he gave during that time and how hard his was working, I don’t think he was drinking that decade. His son was born and he got married in 91 etc. I think he started really drinking in his 50s.
1994, as shown by the copyright at the very end of this clip.
I remember David Cassidy be on Marcus be Welby md
How old was david on this
43 or 44
@@fredcollins8919 thanks he must have gone downhill quickly
he is a nice son
A artist we missed on...............think about it
I never knew that he has written a book. It must be interesting.
Gteat❤!
Geez, what was on offer in the green room ??
He’s jumping off the walls.
🥴 🍺
There was a time when he had more fans than Elvis...
I think more fans than the Beatles as well.
He seems like he's been drinking!
A little,probably to calm his nerves before this major tv show appearance. R IP David
Please translate the video into Spanish language.
Was he drunk?
Not here but clearly drunk in many later interviews. Mean drunk he was.
On the way to losing his looks & hair.
And your point is?? If that's all you liked him for, you were not a true fan. EVERYONE ages!!
David : "I was a very serious actor before the PF show "
Really? I saw him like 30 seconds in minor roles in few TV shows.
Nothing remarkable for a serious actor. ...
His police TV show role after PF was ridiculous and boring.
Rodrigo Rod
David Cassidy was in a lot of dramatic roles before joining The Partridge Family, including:
The F.B.I. The Survivors, Ironside, Adam-12, Bonanza, Marcus Welby, M.D. Medical Center, and The Mod Squad.
@Rodrigo
Better you read his biography. He started in 1969 on Broadway in NY with „The fig leaves are falling“. And he played with his mom in California around 1965. 💕
He had pretty big roles in huge serious tv shows of the time, Bonanza, Marcus Welby and several more. Not minor roles at-all. He was still a teenager 18-19 years old. Phenomenal body of work for someone so young in a very short space of time. All before the PF shot him into utter teen idol status. It wasn’t something he wanted, but dealt with it the best he could. He did have great comedic timing and allowed himself to be the butt of many jokes. He coudn’t really escape it. Unfortunately the PF changed the way he was perceived for any future roles. Just could not shake the teen idol thing, still being introduced that way in his 60’s. It must have been a pain at times. Those early roles can be seen on UA-cam now. Very decent body of work.
Ultimately Cassidy's HUGE ego finished his career. He was a teen idol singing forgettable bubblegum pop music, he was a pretty boy, but his looks overshadowed his minimal talent. He didn't write great music, he didn't play great guitar. He wasn't a great actor. He always claims he was a rock and roller. Yet I've never heard him sing rock and roll or blues. He spent 40 years trading on his 'Partridge Family' fame, a tv show that only lasted for 5 years. He had 3 failed marriages, ignored his illegitimate daughter for 25 years and had a huge fall out with his son.
The combination of having an ego the size of Texas and an alcohol problem caused the failure of his career and his relationships. I find his false Bon homie and 'Mr Showbiz' persona actually very difficult viewing. I do feel sad for the guy, to have had such adulation and fame and watch it all dissipate into nothingness can easily drive you to drink, which was a major part in his downfall.
Tienes razón. Muy sobrevalorado para lo que realmente era.
Are you better than him and why watch this if you don't have a good word about him
So BuzzerObama. If the only reason you came here was to insult David First off, how bored are you? What you have no life. Sounds like pure jealousy to me , and I see why. David is gorgeous, sexy.a good actor and great singer!! No wonder you're jealous. I get it.
@@robertaclark2996 .......you are viewing him through the eyes of a fan who can’t see his flaws. I simply see him objectively and his contribution to popular music, both good and bad
Which part did I get wrong?
@@BazzerObama all of it.
